    Just love these amazing Zephyr trains. Wish one could still ride them. (BTW I noticed that the Wikipedia article on the Denver Zephyr caries the same photo with only the information 'promotional photo': en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denver_Zephyr)

[Missouri Pacific, Diesel Electric Freight Locomotive No. 389]

from SMU Libraries Digital Collections

  • Roger Bee said:
    #389 is an Alco FA-2 freight diesel.....unusual to see it here on the point of a passenger train
  • SMU Libraries Digital Collections said:
    Roger Bee Thank you for your interest! You are correct, it is a freight train, not a passenger train. We've made the appropriate changes and updated our records accordingly to reflect this information. Thank you again for your help in this matter, we always appreciate constructive input from our viewers!

    This is NOT a freight train. The car behind the engines is an express car, the rest are baggage and coach cars. It was not that rare for a freight locomotive to pull a passenger train, especially at Laredo where MP's locomotives were under harsh weather conditions (extreme heat). In other words, whatever was available often had to be utilized.
